The Pro Tour Championship is the culmination of a season long battle for supremacy. Between pride, the ring, and over $40k on the line, the Tour Championship is destined to be one of the most thrilling events our sport has ever seen. Let’s take a tour of how the event will work and why it is setup like it is.

The 2016 Pro Tour is being held at some of the most prestigious courses in disc golf. With the exception of the Ledgestone Open, which touts two highly rated public courses in Peoria, every event is being played on private courses that are independently rated as among the top 20 courses in the world.

Hardware matters. The men’s and women’s Pro Tour Champions will walk away with some significant hardware. The Pro Tour Champion rings were custom designed and hand crafted. In September, two people will be wearing their inaugural Pro Tour Championship rings.
